Lodge Kirknewton & Ratho

Well we've worked our last meeting of the first half of the year and are now in the close season. And what a way to finish. 66 signed the tyle with four deputations and 8 visiting reigning masters in attendance to witness Bro. Kenneth McMaster pm advance Bro. Andy Anderson, one of our "young team" to the honourable degree of Mark Master. Nice to see Andy's father (a MM of Lodge 636) also in attendance. A well worked degree followed by a full Harmony board, with our usual fayre of homemade soup, songs, toasts, replies and of course some corny jokes. Although our next meeting is not until 9th September, we won't be idle. We have deputations to Trinity Trinity 885 next week, Melrose St John No1bis in June and to Lodge Middlesex 1628 in Jamaica in July.

From the RWM and all the brethren, have a warm, relaxing summer and we'll hope to see you all again in September.
